"tortured Soul"

Cast in the shadows Lost in the deep Are suicidal thoughts Merely for the weak Mired in subversive thought In waves of despair Is a longing for nurture In the fruits that we bear Distanced from a reality That may never be Lies a broken angel So blinded by hate it cannot see Cradled in pestilence Sloth spreads like mold Death become imminent As frost surrounds the soul

Yes, it certainly sounds like a tortured soul. You used many words that bring that concept to mind. I hope the poem is not about you, but after you said my Cupid poem reminded me of yourself, gosh, did you get struck by Cupid and then shot down? If so, just pick yourself up and get back in the game, stephen! Luv, andrea
